Hi there, people. This is a very important message for anyone who uses the Creatures Wiki, or who has links on their sites that point to it.
Please change "creatures.wikia.com" in all links that point to the Creatures Wiki to "creatureswiki.net". For example:
http://creatures.wikia.com/wiki/Creatures_2 |
becomes
http://creatureswiki.net/wiki/Creatures_2 |
Note: *not* creatureswiki.com! Use creatureswiki.net!
This is crucially important, because creatureswiki.net is the URL that will continue to point toward the correct wiki regardless of whether we end up moving to another host in the near future. In the event that we moved, the old wiki would still be open (Wikia will likely refuse to close it) - and you would be pointing users to possibly outdated information! The new URL currently redirects to the Wikia site, but should we move it will point to the new site on an ad-free server. Please let anyone who operates a creatures site with wiki links know about this. I cannot post this information on the wiki itself- Wikia will almost certainly remove it immediately as it has the potential to impact their traffic and ad revenue.
If you have any questions by all means let me or one of the other Wiki admins know.

If someone in charge could sticky this for a bit I'd really appreciate it.

Did you need to be registered on the wiki? |

Good to know, I just hope I remember it XD
@ Arny: I think registering is only needed when you want to write new CWiki pages or edit the existing ones.

You don't even need to register to edit things. But if you're not registered and logged in you'll get the new (icky) theme and lots more ads - including the ads on outgoing links.

There has been a bit of discontent with wikia's new default theme, its not as attractive as the original. I have yet to sign up, so this hear-say, but I don't particularly like the format that I've seen as a non-member either.

Looks like the format is changing yet again.
